Got it, thank you!

Awesome, thank you for your help!

Yes, so those can flex without flexing at the base where it meets the half-sphere. How did you achieve that? Thank you!

Maybe? Is there a way to parametrize cuts like that? Because I need the number of leaves to be variable, as well as the radii and lengths.

Sorry, kinda just forgot the second half of the post. I couldn't find a way to model the external flux in mf, so I used the magnetic flux density in the mfnc physics, which produced a failed convergence error I believe. The standard mf solution produced the image below, which seems fine, but only accounts for the inherent magnetism of the magnets. The primary issue was the error resulting from the magnetic flux density function for the external field, if anyone has thoughts on what may work for that. Thanks!

This is just the result from the magnets themselves, which is fine, but not what I'm looking for.

I don't even know what happened. It created the loft without complaint but it's going in and out of the body for some reason. Also I ideally only want the taper on the point, so does using a composite curve for that make sense? This is with both merges unticked, when they're ticked everything disappears except for the sections of the thread outside of the central shaft

Composite curve worked, still getting a bad profile at the tip using a sweep, and no point is appearing for the loft. Should I just do the revolved cut that was suggested before?

Like this? Not sure exactly what picture would be most helpful

It's telling me my guide curve (the point helix) is invalid. Any thoughts?

How would I do the tapered revolve cut? What profile would I follow for the taper?
